TEAM BUILDING PARTNER UP FOR THIS FUN BODYWEIGHT WORKOUT — AND ALSO BUILD YOUR FRIENDSHIP.

Sometimes motivation is right in front of you. No, we’re not talking about your social media feed but rather your social circle. Recent research shows that teaming up with a friend, family member or significant other motivates you to exercise harder and longer, improving your chances for success by almost half: Study participants who undertook a yearlong workout program as a pair only had a 6 percent dropout rate as compared to the 43 percent of those who went it alone.
